Gitlab is not starting anymore.

It was working properly for more then 6 months, but now service gitlab start ends with:

Waited 30s for the processes to write their pids, something probably went wrong.

sidekiq.log output is:

2016-05-19T11:40:38.267Z 1368 TID-ou6ydr8us ERROR: /home/git/gitlab/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.1.0/gems/redis-3.1.0/lib/redis/client.rb:309:in `rescue in establish_connection'

I tried executing redis-cli -h localhost and it gave me localhost:6379> prompt.

Update:

I updated gitlab to 7.11, Gitlab webui is working but still not able to push commites, now sidekiq.log is showing below output:

I deleted all files inside /home/git/gitlab/ (except hidden files).

Then I ran git stash in above folder, It brought back all files (version 7.11)

Then I followed installation step (after cloning code) shown as on Gitlab website.

Changed url etc in gitlab config files (you can find steps on gitlab website)

It solved my error. Hope this will help others.
